My daughter and I went to this theme park today to see the lush landscaping and water features. It's a great park if you have small children, which we don't, but we went on some of the rides there like the big rubber ducky paddle boat. :wah: The park is gorgeous and has some very unusual trees like the Circus Trees.

That one tree they showed was really unique!

Did you go on the monorail to see the butterfly's?
